Oozlefinch is a historical figure, a mascot for the Air Defense Artillery. The originals (here, from San Francisco) were plaster. Goofy, aren't they?

I sculpted this one, I think I got pretty close!
This is Oozlefinch Version II- I changed the eyes and feet to closer approximate the original. The outer toe on each side is shorter than the inner toe. I also deliberately tilted his head but that can be changed with each casting. This one captures the arch in the foot more accurately, and the eyes are also more correct to the original.
I won't be making the production on these, just the molds. But these ceramic castings are to get a good master for those molds. They will be sold as a fundraiser for a San Diego historical site, Fort Rosecrans.
